The second studio album from Toronto's The Cansecos is a considerable step up, out and above their debut self-titled release 4 years ago. The Ottawa Xpress calls them "The Postal Service on ecstacy" and the NY Observer calls them the band "set to replace The Rapture as the dance-rock hybrid that everyone is mooning over".
"While The Cansecos might delve into an oh-so-familiar "I made this on my laptop while the world slept" aesthetic, the now-a-quartet succeed where so many others fail. Tracks sound familiar but not comfortable, assured but blindly ambitious. They're constantly keeping you on your toes with myriad-layered beats and vocals that are ethereally robotic. Their production is clean and the arrangements unfold in a meticulously measured chaos...It all works to the point where The Cansecos have set themselves apart from their peers, and have done it in irreverent style" - CHART
